Tom Gausden, Head of Sales and Lead for Sustainability and Life
Sciences at Patients Know Best
SHC Member since May 2020.
“Our core mission is to improve patient outcomes and empower patients to live healthier lives. This mission can’t be delivered to its full potential whilst climate change continues to pose such a major threat to everyone’s health. Over the past three years, the Sustainable Healthcare Coalition has provided the expertise that has enabled us to shape our sustainability strategy. By meeting regularly and openly sharing advice and guidance across a hugely experienced group, we’ve been able to learn a massive amount in a short space of time.”
Changes implemented since joining the Coalition
Since joining the Sustainable Healthcare Coalition, we’ve developed our green strategy, quantified the environmental savings that NHS organisations have delivered through PKB, as well as producing our footprint analysis and carbon reduction strategy.
Recent sustainability achievement
We’ve recently published our footprint publicly on our green site (here) alongside several key case studies that were developed with the Sustainable Healthcare Coalition and the AHSN network. Additionally, we’re pleased to be in the final stages of getting board approval for our carbon
reduction strategy, which will be published in early 2023.
